This invention relates to a curtain rod supporting bracket.

The object of the invention is the production of curtain rod supporting brackets, which can be securely and detachably sup ported on the ordinary moulding extending from the upper portion of the face of the wall of a room. The second object of the invention is the production of brackets on which a lo plurality of curtain rods can be detachably secured.

In the accompanying drawings Fig. 1 rep resents a front elevation, partly broken away, and section of Fig. 2 on the line 1, 1, of an exemplification of a pair of the improved curtain rod supporting brackets with their appurtenances; Fig. 2 shows a top plan yiew of Fig. 1; Fig. 3 is a partial section of Fig. 1

0n the line 3, 3; Fig. 4 represents a perspective view of a modified curtain rod supporting bracket and Fig. 5 shows a section of Fig. 4

in a vertical plane passing through the line Referring to Figs. 1 to 3 inclusive a wall 20 has extending therefrom the usual moulding 21 having the crown 22 and the edges 23 and 24.

A pair of the improved curtain rod suping 21. Each supporting bracket in this instance comprises the curved crown 28, from which extends the inclined wall 29, and from the latter extends the horizontal table 30. Prongs 31, in this instance, are integral with and extend from the outer edge of the table and at right angles thereto. The crowns 28 oft-he supporting brackets are supported on the crown 22 of the moulding, and the wall 29 preferably bears against the edges 23 and 24 of said moulding 21, to space the supporting bracket from the wall 20, to avoid injury to the latter.

Collapsible curtain rods are designated in their entirety by the numerals 33, 34, and 35. Each curtain rod in this instance comprises the outer C shaped longitudinal member 38,

with the off-set arm 39 at right angles thereto. In each of the arms 39 are formed, in the usual way, the openings 40, which extend through the crown and lower curved portion of the off-set arm 39.

Collapsible with each longitudinal member 38, there is indicated the C shaped longitudinal member 44 having the off-set arm 45, with the openings 46 similar to the openings 40.1"

The offset arms 39 and of each curtain rod are locked with one of the prongs 31 of each of the supporting brackets, by engaging the openings 40 and 46, with said prongs. A

fragmentary portion 48 of a curtain is shown;

thereof. porting brackets are supported on the mould- Having described my invention what I desire to secure by Letters Patent and claim is:

l. Ina bracket of the character described the combination of a crown, an inclined wall extending from said crown, a. horizontal ta ble extending from the lower end of said wall and prongs extending from said table and at right angles thereto.

2. The combination of a curtain rod supporting bracket comprising a curved crown adapted to be supported on a moulding, a wall extending from said crown, a table extending from said wall and prongs extending from said table adapted to detachably support the ends of curtain rods.

3. The combination of a pair of curtain rod supporting brackets, each supporting bracketcomprising a crown adapted to be supported 1 on the moulding, a Wall extending from'said crown of the bracket, a table extending from said Well, and a plurality ofprongs extending from said table, similarly positioned prongs on the tables of thebrackets comprising pairs,

and each pair of said prongs adapted to de-' tachably support the offset arms of curtain supporting rods.
